[App_rpt-users] Wireless issues on new install

Stacey,
I have a similar problem on my LAN with a Technicolor CableModem. 
Internet connectivity works fine, but I can't always ping or SSH into other LAN WiFi devices.
I ended up writing a cron script to reset WiFi if connectivity goes away. 

Never had this LAN issue with other WiFi modem/routers.

  It may be a firewall issue. I'll copy Nate on this.

  Final issue I will bring up for a while (I hope, but can't promise): 
  On the Acer Aspire One I installed on I added the wlan adapter to the interfaces file:
 
 # wireless adapter with dhcp
 auto wlp2s0
 iface wlp2s0 inet dhcp
     wpa-ssid myssid
     wpa-key-mgmt WPA-PSK
     wpa-group TKIP CCMP
     wpa-psk mypasskey
 
 After doing this I ran across the script in the asl-menu for setting up wireless and ran it - it looked like it added info to the wpa.supplicant (I verified it's all info was correct).
 
 Ok, so here is the issue - the wlan connects and gets proper addresses and dns - I can ping anything and get responses, I can ssh to other systems on my network, there seems to be no problem with bi-directional communications *if* originated from the system. The same cannot be said for incoming - no  ping response, no ssh, apparently nothing connects when coming in.
 
 I don't think it's an issue with the adapter or driver, also it was working (after manually adding to interfaces) on the previous image. I am not sure where to start but hoping someone can help direct my focus and efforts. 
  Thanks again! Stacey - KB7YS
